could we separate the awards into different tables 1 when the film is nominated then another by the actors then another by the crew? I feel like it'd be easier to navigate that way Lady Lotus (talk) 23:28, 15 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Add the Hugo Award

The Avengers just won a Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation (Long Form): http://www.thehugoawards.org/2013/09/2013-hugo-award-winners/

That should definitely go in this list!! 2602:304:4130:EB69:6527:9654:1E73:6E8 (talk) 18:28, 9 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Refs in the lead

Featured articles/lists shouldn't have citations in the lead section. Not sure why the info about the film which doesn't consern the awards is even there. Why does it matter how much it made at the box office?★Trekker (talk) 03:03, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This information and citations was added specifically to make this a featured list. I know it is usually something we would want to avoid in our articles, but with lists it can be a little different. It is important to give context to the list, even if that means adding information that is not covered in the body. In this case we give a brief overview of the film so that a user ca find some meaning in the list without knowing anything about the film before hand. Because this info is not in the list itself, it has to be sourced, which is why this is an exception to that usual rule. - adamstom97 (talk) 03:52, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
